专八英语作文：创新精神

Here are two pictures, both interesting but with sharply contrasted implication. As is vividly depicted in the first photo, a man is fishing with a traditional fishing rod. On the contrary, the second picture describes that the other boy is fishing with an improved fishing rod, which completes the contrast of the two pictures. Apparently, what the two drawings have subtly conveyed by their striking contrast is supposed to be given further analysis.

A conclusion could be drawn from the picture: innovation plays a vital role in our life. And my words are based upon the following two reasons. On the top of the list is that the modern society calls for innovation, which is the incentive of social improvement. In addition, there is the other point that no one can ignore. It is universally admitted that human are curious about new things, and that is the inner motivation of human.

According to the analysis above, it is advisable for us to take steps to encourage innovation. Of all the steps, mass media tends to function essentially in the work and it could make the general public realize the significance of innovation.

To sum up, the world is getting smaller and smaller. We should protect our culture on the one hand and on the other hand, we can also celebrate the western festivals for the sake of cross-cultural communication.

Emerging from the cartoon is an eye-catching scene that the parents are willing to have a second child, while their only child do not agree because of his worry that he doesnt want to have another child, even his own sibling, share toys with him. Simple as it is, the symbolic meaning revealed is profound and thought-provoking.

We are supposed to place our attention on, instead of its funny appearance, the implied meaning of the cartoon: as the overall second-child policy expands throughout China, some only children are so selfish that they cannot accept the second child in their family. What can account for this undesirable situation? For one thing, they, as the only child at home all the time, have no awareness of sharing what they like with others due to the fact that all the family members give their love to the only child. As a result, when faced with the problem of whether they are willing to have a sibling, their first response is to refuse it. For another reason, some couples are eager to have a second child as soon as possible, which makes them neglect to communicate with their only child to let them realize the advantage of having a sibling companion in their childhood.

From what has been discussed above, its safe for me to conclude that it is urgent to take some immediate and effective measures. What I recommend is that parents should let child know the importance of sharing with others, which is beneficial for them in future life. In addition, its better for parents to have more communication with their only child once they want to have a second child.

Although Chinese people have gradually become wealthy more or less due to the reform and opening-up policy，they have oftentimes been troubled by a lack of friends that they can take into their confidence. This observation manifests itself most vividly in a line cited from the movie.If You Are the One，that is，“I do not lack money but friends”.Ironically，in the cell phone contact list of an average person，the number of cell phone numbers may reach a couple of hundreds.One can not help wondering if modern people become lonelier than before.Personally，I hold the opinion that modern people do become lonelier than before.

Firstly，due to the urbanizing process at an unprecedented speed，the society became more mobile，for more and more people migrate from one city to another to seek fortune.Nowadays people in cities are consisted of migrate workers from rural areas，college graduates in pursuit of their dreams， businessmen across the country and the local. Given the fact that people from different regions have different subcultures，people tend to reject people with different backgrounds.Besides，as people are more interested in making money， they are more likely to conflict in interest.No wonder that circle of confidants has shrunk dramatically and the number of people with whom to discuss important matters has spirally increased.

Secondly，while people are able to benefit from the advancement of new technologies， they are likely to depend more upon technologies instead of friends. Communication technologies such as the Internet and phones let people stay in contact with other people who are from remote areas， and spend time on the phone and the Internet communications instead of dealing with people face to face. Network games have gained their popularity to such an extent that many spend most of their spare time in playing network games and hence they become apathetic to have a good time with friends face to face. That face time seems more likely to develop friendships.

As a result，the reduced face time would translate into a loose network between friends.In sum，urbanization has reduced the intimacy between human beings and makes them less likely to make friends than in the past and the advancement of modern technology also makes people more apathetic by reducing face-to-face contact with friends.I hope people can regain the intimacy between friends as before.

Facing the two options, I will choose to take a job in a company. There are mainly two reasons for my choice.

On one hand, I am eager to apply what Ive learned to practice since I have got so many years schooling. Moreover, I am somewhat tired of the “ivory tower” life and ready for the “real world” life, for I assume that I can learn more from getting in touch with society. On the other hand, my family needs my financial support, because my parents are getting older and older and making less and less. Though it doesnt take much to pursue my further study, I cannot support my parents financially if I choose to go to a graduate school.

To sum up, to take a job in a company meets my desire of learning from practice and support my parents financially, which is a better choice for me.
